    Should be from the pools of NPAs that are valid for the Selective Router they will be

 3 Assumptions and Constraints
  3.1
    
    pANIs (and specific to these guidelines, ESQKs) in the format NPA-NXX-XXXX are by
definition6 in the format of a Central Office code and are therefore administered by the
North American Numbering Plan Administrator7 under Guidelines developed by the
INC8.3.2
    
    In Stage II the NXX-211-XXXX and NXX-511-XXXX should be identified in 47 C.F.R. §
52.13.(d) as a unique sub-set of NANP resources known as pANIs.
 
 4
    
    The term 9-1-1 Governing Authority means an entity designated under state law or
regulation to have decision-making and oversight responsibilities for a 9-1-1 Emergency Number
System for one or more PSAPs.5
    
    Generally speaking, an E9-1-1 SSP is in the majority of cases an ILEC but there are other
entities that perform that function.6
    
    47C.F.R. § 52.7(c)7
    
    47C.F.R. § 52.15(a)8
    
    47C.F.R. § 52.15(d) Page 5




---



##### 



3.3
    
    Although pANIs are believed to be a North American Numbering Plan
resource the existing requirements of 47 C.F.R. § 52 Numbering
do not apply unless specifically indicated in these interim
guidelines. The specific sections of 47 C.F.R. § 52 that should
apply to pANIs will be determined in Stage II.3.4
    
    These interim guidelines are for use in cooperation with various
North American Numbering Plan numbering guidelines developed by
the INC and the recommendations of ESIF and NANC.3.5
    
    The Interim 9-1-1 RNA will work with other entities administering
ESQKs to transition administrative functions to the Interim 9-1-1
RNA according to a mutually agreeable timetable for transition.3.6
    
    ESQK numbering resources shall be assigned to permit the most
effective and efficient use of a finite numbering resource in
order to prevent premature exhaust. Efficient resource management
and number conservation are necessary due to the industry impacts
of expanding the numbering resource.3.7
    
    If at any point the FCC rules require regulatory certification,
the applicant must be able to demonstrate that regulatory
authorization has been obtained for the issuance of ESQK
numbering resources.3.8
    
    These guidelines do not address the issue of who will fulfill the
role of Interim 9-1-1 RNA. The NANC pANI IMG developed these
interim guidelines with ESIF without any assumption on who should
be the Interim 9-1-1 RNA.3.9
    
    The NANC developed these interim guidelines as a temporary guide
for the industry pending development of permanent INC guidelines
in cooperation with ESIF.3.10
    
    Administrative assignment of the ESQK numbering resource to an
ESQK holder does not imply ownership of the resource by the
Interim 9-1-1 RNA, nor does it imply ownership by the ESQK holder
to which it is assigned.3.11
    
    Interim 9-1-1 RNA and numbering resource administrators are
responsible for managing numbering resources in accordance with
these guidelines and the orders of applicable regulatory
authorities.3.12
    
    An applicant is not required to provide any additional
explanation or justification of items to which he/she has
certified. However, that explanation/justification alone may not
provide the Interim 9-1-1 RNA with sufficient information upon
which to make a decision regarding pANI number assignment, and
additional dialog and written documentation may be required. The
Interim 9-1-1 RNA is still obligated to reply within five
business days.3.13
    
    Should the FCC delegate authority to state commissions, state
commissions shall have access to Eligible Users inventory
assignments and their use of ESQKs in each Selective Router for
the purpose of ensuring the correct application of these
numbering resources. Should the FCC delegate authority to state
commissions, state commissions may request an accounting of
inventories from the Eligible Users operating within their
states, and Eligible Users must comply with such state commission
requests. Entities that fail to comply with a state commission
request for ESQK information shall be denied ESQKs should the FCC
delegate such authority to state commissions.

3.14
    
    The Interim 9-1-1 RNA will survey existing usage to ensure
that unique ESQKs are being assigned.3.15
    
    These guidelines do not describe the method by which the
unique ESQKs as identified in this document are transmitted
across and processed by networks. Such arrangements may be
contained in other standards, documents, or business
agreements.
 4 Assignment Principles
  4.1
    
    An Eligible User is any entity that provides the appropriate
documentation identified in these guidelines for the need for ESQKs to
perform routing or data retrieval functions associated with emergency
services. In the context of these guidelines, an Eligible User shall
include a VSP or an entity providing VPC service acting on behalf of
VSP(s). An entity that has not obtained approval from the 9-1-1
Governing Authority will not be considered an Eligible User.4.2
    
    ESQKs are assigned for use at a Selective Router for which the Eligible
User has approval to route E9-1-1 traffic for termination to a PSAP or
an Emergency Service Zone (ESZ) within a PSAP.4.3
    
    ESQK NPA-211-XXXX should be used before ESQK NPA-511-XXXX unless ESQKs
from NPA 211 have been assigned and are being used where the NPA will
coincide with the NPA of the Selective Router. These ESQKs shall be
considered non-dialable in the Eligible Users network.4.4
    
    ESQKs are assigned uniquely to individual Eligible Users.4.5
    
    At the discretion of the 9-1-1 Governing Authority, a VPC operator that
processes 9-1-1 calls originating from various VSP networks is not
required to acquire and use separate ESQKs for each VSP as long as the
VPC enables clear identification of the originating VSP in the display
of the callers information at the PSAP.4.6
    
    ESQKs will be assigned in contiguous ranges (where possible), and in
quantities requested by the applicant. However, the Interim 9-1-1 RNA
does not guarantee that all ESQKs will be assigned in contiguous ranges.4.7
    
    Any entity assigning ESQKs will:
 4.7.1
    
    Assign ESQKs in a fair, timely and impartial manner to any Eligible User.4.7.2
    
    Assign ESQKs on a first come, first served basis from the available pool.4.7.3
    
    Make all ESQK assignments in conformance with these guidelines.4.7.4
    
    Treat all information received from applicants as proprietary and
confidential. The Interim 9-1-1 RNA is permitted to provide the contact
information for the assigned user of any given ESQK(s) to law

    Information that is requested of an Eligible User in support of an ESQK application shall
be uniform and kept to a minimum.5
    Criteria for the Assignment of ESQK Numbers
  5.1
    
    ESQKs are assigned to entities for use at a Selective Router for which the Eligible User
has approval from the 9-1-1 Governing Authority to route E9-1-1 traffic for termination to a PSAP.5.2
    
    The potential Eligible User must self-certify that it is able to route traffic to the
appropriate Selective Router before receiving its first grant of ESQK numbering resources.5.3
    
    The potential Eligible User must submit an ESQK request form certifying that a need
exists for the assignment for use with a specific Selective Router.5.4
    
    The Interim 9-1-1 RNA will not issue ESQKs to an Eligible User without an Operating
Company Number (OCN)9. The OCN cannot be shared with another Eligible User.5.5
    
    All applications for numbering resources must include the company name, company
headquarters address, OCN, parent companys OCN(s), and the primary type of business in which the
numbering resources will be used.105.6
    
    All applications for numbering resources must include a National Emergency Number
Association (NENA) provided Company ID to be associated with the
ESQKs.5.7
    
    ESQKs will not be reserved.5.8
    
    Information that is requested of an Eligible User in support of an ESQK application
shall be maintained by the Interim 9-1-1 RNA.6
    ESOK Assignment Functions
  6.1
    
    Produce and make available upon request information regarding ESQK Administration
processes, guidelines, interfaces and services.6.2
    
    Provide, upon request of the ESQK applicant, information on how to obtain documents

OCN must be provided, if applicable12. The applicant can get OCN information by
calling NECA.137.2
    
    A NENA provided Company ID to be associated with the ESQKs.7.3
    
    The information associated with ESQK assignment may change over time. Such changes may
occur, for example, because of the transfer of an ESQK from a VSP to a VPC.7.4
    
    The holder of ESQKs assigned by the Interim 9-1-1 RNA, or acquired by merger or
acquisition, must use the ESQKs consistent with these guidelines. If the Eligible User no longer
provides service in the area, the Eligible User must notify the Interim 9-1-1 RNA.7.5
    
    The Interim 9-1-1 RNA will retain copies of such notifications and deliver them to the
permanent 9-1-1 RNA for use in reclamation proceedings. The Interim 9-1-1 RNA must be immediately
notified of any changes to the information contained in the application.8
    Assignment Procedures
  8.1
    
    An ESQK Applicant requesting resources from the Interim 9-1-1 RNA, shall:
   8.2
    
    An applicant must apply to the Interim 9-1-1 RNA (contact details provided below). An
applicant should follow all application instructions found on the application form. At a minimum,
the form will request:
       
 12
    
    FCC 01-362, 47 C.F.R. § 52.15 (g)(4).13
    
    NECA assigns Company Codes that may be used as OCNs. Companies with no prior CO Code or
Company Code assignments may contact NECA (800
524-1020) to be assigned a Company Code(s). Since multiple OCNs and/or Company Codes may be
associated with a given company, companies with prior assignments should direct questions regarding
appropriate OCN usage to the Telcordia Routing Administration (TRA) on 732 699-6700.

8.3
    
    Any applicant denied an ESQK assignment under these guidelines has the right to
appeal that decision (see Section 11 for procedures).9
    
    Interim 9-1-1 RNA Responsibilities9.1
    
    The Interim 9-1-1 RNA will track and monitor ESQK assignments and assignment
procedures, and recommend appropriate and timely changes to these guidelines, if they are found to
result in inefficient or inappropriate use or assignment of ESQKs. However, any changes to these
guidelines must be approved by the INC with guidance by ESIF if appropriate.9.2
    
    The Interim 9-1-1 RNA will not engage in audits or reclamation.9.3
    
    Initial Implementation: Before it begins assigning ESQKs, the Interim 9-1-1 RNA must
ensure that the ESQKs it assigns are not presently in use. Because it is believed that few ESQKs
have been assigned from the 211 NXXs, the Interim 9-1-1 RNA will assign ESQKs only from the 211
NXX unless extenuating circumstances exist. To avoid duplication, the Interim 9-1-1 RNA will first
perform the following steps in order until it can determine what numbers are available to be
assigned:
 1.
    
    Ask existing mobile position center (MFC) and VPC vendors to provide a list of all the
entities that have been assigned pANIs in the 211 NXX, and the entity (and contact information)
that assigned the pANI.2.
    
    Ask each wireless service provider to respectively identify the entity that provides pANIs to
it.3.
    
    Ask each E9-1-1 SSP to identify any pANI and entity that it has assigned a pANI to from the
211 code. In addition, ask each E9-1-1 SSP to identify any other entities that may perform pANI
assignments within its territory (including independents).
 9.4
    
    Once it has compiled a list of entities that assign numbers, the Interim 9-1-1 RNA will
canvass those entities to determine what, if any, pANIs they have assigned from the 211 NXX. The
remaining available pANIs in the 211-NXX in all NPAs will constitute the available pool from which
the Interim 9-1-1 RNA will assign ESQKs.9.5
    
    The Interim 9-1-1 RNA will ensure the completeness of each application and accompanying
documentation before it assigns resources.9.6
    
    The Interim 9-1-1 RNA will process each application within 5 business days, on a first
in, first out basis, and inform the applicant of the result by an identifiable email form. If the
application is denied, the Interim 9-1-1 RNA will provide a detailed explanation of the denial.

##### 



10
    Conflict Resolution and Appeals Process10.1
    
    Every attempt will be made at the time of assignment to avoid conflicts with
existing pANIs.10.2
    
    Disagreements may arise between parties affected by these interim guidelines in the
context of the administration and management of these guidelines. In all cases, the parties will
make reasonable, good faith efforts to resolve such disagreements among themselves, consistent with
the interim guidelines, prior to pursuing any appeal.10.3
    
    If a conflict is determined to exist, the following escalation process should be
followed:
       10.4
    
    Questions regarding interpretation or clarification of these Interim Guidelines may be
referred to NANC for resolution. Unless otherwise mutually agreed to by the parties, these
questions will be submitted in a generic manner protecting the identity of the appellant.10.5
    
    Reports on any resolution resulting from the above options, the content of which will be
mutually agreed upon by the involved parties, will be kept on file by the Interim 9-1-1 RNA. At a
minimum, the report will contain the final disposition of the appeal, e.g., whether or not an ESQK
was assigned.11
    Maintenance of These Guidelines11.1
    
    These guidelines may be updated to reflect changes in industry practices or
national regulatory directives.11.2
    
    Requests for changes to these guidelines should be directed to the appropriate industry
forum, currently the INC.

Emergency Service Query Key
(ESQK)
    
    Emergency Service Query Key
(ESQK)  The ESQK identifies a call
instance at a VPC, and is associated
with a particular SR and PSAP
combination. The ESQK is delivered
to the E9-1-1 SR and as the calling
number/ANI for the call to the PSAP.
The ESQK is used by the SR as the
key to the Selective Routing data
associated with the call. The ESQK
is delivered by the SR to the PSAP
as the calling number/ANI for the
call, and is subsequently used by
the PSAP to request ALI information
for the call. The ALI database
includes the ESQK in location
requests sent to the VPC. The ESQK
is used by the VPC as a key to look
up the location object and other
call information associated with an
emergency call instance. The ESQK is
expected to be a ten-digit North
American Numbering Plan Number.Industry Numbering Committee
(INC)
    
    A standing committee of the
Alliance for Telecommunications
Industry Solutions (ATIS) that
provides an open forum to address
and resolve industry-wide issues
associated with the planning,
administration, allocation,
assignment and use of numbering
resources and related dialing
considerations for public
telecommunications within the North
American Numbering Plan (NANP) area.North American Numbering 
Council (NANC)
    
    North American Numbering
Council  On October 5, 1995, the
Federal Communications Commission
(FCC) established the North American
Numbering Council (NANC), by filing
its charter with Congress, to
provide advice and recommendations
to the FCC and other governments
(including Canada and Caribbean
countries) on numbering issues.NANP (North American

NANP Area
    
    Consists of the United
States, Canada and the Caribbean
countries (American Samoa,
Anguilla, Antigua, Bahamas,
Barbados, Bermuda, British
Virgin Islands, Canada, Cayman
Islands, Dominica, Dominican
Republic, Grenada, Jamaica,
Montserrat, St. Kitts & Nevis,
St. Lucia, St. Vincent &
Grenadines, Turks & Caicos
Islands, Trinidad & Tobago, and
the United States (including
Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin
Islands, Guam and the
Commonwealth of the Northern
Mariana Islands).Numbering Plan Area (NPA)
    
    Numbering Plan Area, also
called area code. An NPA is the
3-digit code that occupies the
A, B, and C positions in the
10-digit NANP format that
applies throughout the NANP
Area. NPAs are of the form N0/1X;
where N represents the
digits 2-9 and X represents any
digit 0-9. After 1/1/95, NPAs
will be of the form NXX. In the
NANP, NPAs are classified as
either geographic or
non-geographic.
 a)
    
    Geographic NPAs are
NPAs which correspond to
discrete geographic areas within
the NANP Area.b)
    
    Non-geographic NPAs
are NPAs that do not correspond
to discrete geographic areas,
but which are instead assigned
for services with attributes,
functionalities, or requirements
that transcend specific
geographic boundaries. The
common examples are NPAs in the
N00 format, e.g., 800.
 Operating Company Number
(OCN)
    
    An Operating Company
Number is a four place
alphanumeric number that
uniquely identifies providers of
local telecommunications
service. OCN assignments are
required of all Service
Providers in their submission of
utilization and forecast data
(FCC 00-104, ¶ 41 and Public
Notice DA 00-1549). Relative to
CO Code assignments, NECA
assigned Company Numbers may be
used as OCNs. Companies with no
prior CO Code or Company Number
assignments contact NECA (800
524-1020) to be assigned a
Company Number(s). Since
multiple OCNs and/or Company
Numbers may be associated with a
given company, companies with
prior assignments should direct
questions regarding appropriate
OCN usage to the Telcordia

service (FCC 00-104, § 52.5 (i)).Unassignable Code
    
    An unassignable number is an NXX code
designated by the administrator which will
not be made available for assignment to any
number applicant. For example, the number
9-1-1 will not be assigned as a central
office code so as to avoid potential conflict
with emergency services.VPC
    
    VoIP Positioning Center.Wireless E9-1-1
ESRD/ESRK Number
    
    A 10-digit number used for the purpose
of routing an E9-1-1 call to the appropriate
Public Service Answering Point (PSAP) when
that
call is originating from wireless
equipment. The Emergency Services Routing
Digit (ESRD) identifies the cell site and
sector of the call origination in a wireless
call scenario. The Emergency Services Routing
Key (ESRK) uniquely identifies the call in a
given cell site/sector and correlates data
that is provided to a PSAP by different
paths, such as the voice path and the
Automatic Location Identification (ALI) data
path. Both the ESRD and ESRK define a route
to the proper PSAP. The ESRK alone, or the
ESRD and/or Mobile Identification Number
(MIN), is signaled to the PSAP where it can
be used to retrieve from the ALI database,
the mobile callers call-back number,
position and the emergency service agencies
(e.g., police, fire, medical, etc.)
associated with the callers location. If a
NANP TN is used as an ESRD or ESRK, this
number cannot be assigned to a customer.

 A) ISSUE STATEMENT
  B) FOLLOWING RESOLUTION FROM INC
  COCAG Changes:
  3.10
    
    If an SP has chosen to participate in thousands-block number pooling in a voluntary
rate center outside of the top 100 MSAs, the SP cannot withdraw from pooling in a voluntary
rate center once the SP has submitted a forecast, a donation, or has been assigned a
thousands-block. Once an SP chooses to participate in thousands-block number pooling in a
voluntary rate center, all numbering requests must be submitted directly to the PA.4.1.1
    
    The applicant must certify a need for NANP numbers, e.g., provision of
wireline or wireless service in the Public Switched Telephone Network.

 If NANPA determines from the report provided by the PA that an applicant is participating in
pooling in that rate center, NANPA will deny the application. Once an applicant chooses to
participate in thousands-block number pooling in a voluntary rate center, all numbering requests
must be submitted directly to the PA.
   
    
    The CO Code Administrator will only process NXX requests received at least 33 calendar
days prior to the Pool Start Date.
    
    Within the 33 calendar days prior to Pool Start Date, applications for codes/blocks will not be
accepted. However within this 33-day interval, the NANPA will continue to process code
applications for:
 
    
    CO codes awarded via lottery;
    
    LRN requests;
    
    full CO code request for a single customer;
    
    CO code expedite requests;
    
    petition/safety valve requests;
    
    any requests from non-pooling capable carriers; and
    
    PA requests to the NANPA.
  Once an SP chooses to participate in thousands-block number pooling in a voluntary rate center,
all numbering requests must be submitted directly to the PA. NANPA will not assign a CO code

thousands-block in that rate center.
 TBPAG Changes:
 2.4
    
    These administration guidelines apply only to the assignment of thousands-blocks
to Block Applicants providing service within specific rate areas:
 a)
    
    where SP Location Routing Number (LRN) Local Number Portability (LNP) has been
implemented;b)
    
    where thousands-block number pooling has been mandated by the appropriate
regulatory body;c)
    
    where an SP has chosen to participate in thousands-block number pooling in a
voluntary rate center outside of the top 100 MSAs, the SP cannot withdraw from pooling
in a voluntary rate center once the SP has submitted a forecast or donation, or has
been assigned a thousands-block. Once an SP chooses to participate in thousands-block
number pooling in a voluntary rate center all numbering requests must be
submitted directly to the
PA4;
 5.1.1
    
    The PA, upon request, shall provide information and answer questions for clarification
regarding thousands-block number pooling administration processes, procedures, interfaces, and
services. Additionally, the PA shall provide, upon request of the thousands-block number
pooling participant, information on how to obtain documents related to thousands-block number
pooling administration. This can be accomplished by either referring the SP to web sites where
it will be possible to download electronic copies, or by providing electronic copies via
e-mail.The PA shall:
 a)
    
    be responsible for activities associated with industry
inventory pool establishment;b)
    
    assure the availability, based upon industry established criteria, of
numbering resources within the industry inventory pool for a given rate area;c)
    
    add to the resources in the industry inventory pool when necessary by
requesting additional CO Codes from the CO Code Administrator using Months to
Exhaust Certifications Worksheet-1000 Block Level (Appendix 4);d)
    
    work with the CO Code Administrator in the planning and implementation
of NPA code relief (e.g., update the PAs industry database to reflect any changes

    The PA will provide a report to NANPA of the SPs participating in pooling in
a voluntary rate center outside of the top 100 MSAs. If NANPA determines from the report
that an SP
is participating in pooling in a voluntary rate center, NANPA will deny a
CO Code application for
that rate center. © NeuStar, Inc. 2006

operational functions (e.g., thousands-block reclamation);h)
    
    make available on their web site the PA-recognized holidays and distribute as
necessary;i)
    
    log and track all thousands-block applications using a tracking mechanism which will enable
the PA and Block Applicant to identify a specific thousands-block request; andj)
    
    build and maintain an industry data base which includes appropriate security for
confidential data. The database will be accessible through an appropriate mechanism and, at a
minimum, include the following information:1)
    
    all pooled thousands-blocks in the industry inventory pool (i.e., NPA-NXX-X level information
displayed),2)
    
    status of the thousands-blocks (i.e., allocated/assigned, available),3)
    
    identification of the SP to which the thousands-block has been allocated, whether or not a
thousands-block is contaminated,4)
    
    user profile(s) that contain the SP contact information, OCN,
and level of access permitted.
An SP may need multiple individual profiles and passwords (See Appendix 5  User Profile
Application).k)
    
    set the Pool Indicator on the CO Code ACD screen in BIRRDS for those NXX codes from which
thousands-blocks have been donated to the pool after Block Donation Date.l)
    
    provide a report to NANPA of the SPs participating in pooling in a voluntary rate
center outside of the top 100 MSAs. NANPA shall deny any CO Code application from an SP that
is participating in pooling in a voluntary rate center.
